who are you guys backing?

same m8, hope it beats x-factor

Same here. I'm a member of that group. Been commenting on radio stations' walls and texting them since this morning

i've already bought a surfin bird twice lol, i really hope this get to number one, though we aren't getting any media attention..

Yeah, I've been listening to BBC Radio 1 for most of the afternoon and they've only mentioned Cage Against The Machine - but they have alot less members than Bird

Harry Hill's Ken Barlow tribute.

No chance

Surfin' Bird is now top 10 on iTunes

3rd on iTunes now, this will be classic if it wins!

Well apparently everyone now knows that the bird is the word....

Haha!

Well I'm happy everyone knows about this chap! He lives right near me! When he filmed the video I was out shopping for shoes and as I walk out there is a half naked man doing 'Bird is the word' in santa lingerie!

I could barely stand as the floor was completly iced! but didn't help, the fact I couldnt stop laughing!

Initially I did want him to get number one, but Matt Cardle is such a lad so I'm not fussed who wins!

Either way this beat the crappy song that was number 1 last year!

I heard Rihanna was favourite?

Just been on their facebook page and saw some big news!

They've managed to arrange for a press release to be published by the record label (Sundazed).

This can only be a good thing as we've previously had very little media coverage, (apart from Scott Mills and the video) and had to rely solely on persueding radio stations to either play the song or talk about our campaign.

That press release is great and all, but there seems to be an absence of a certain ornithological piece? A headline regarding mass awareness of a certain avian variety?

I heard that Brian and Stewie bought Matt's CD

ha! Brilliant!

I was pretty disgusted when I read this

HAHAHAAH i love this song. watched it on family guy. how v catchy. love for this to b christmas number one but i want matts x factor song. sorry guys but this would b v good for number 2

Matts song got it.

Surfin bird got 3rd i heard.

Yeah, Surfin' Bird got 3rd and Biffy Clyro got to number 8.

But a special mention must go to the facebook group who got a particular song to number 66 (although it's too rude to post here)

matt

I know the one you mean. Very rude indeed but hilarious. Still higher than Joe McElderry's latest one.
